Espalier Trees Lend Beauty to the Home 
.... and produce fruit of delicious quality 
F OR many years gardeners of Europe 
have depended upon Espalier trees for 
much of their landscape work because 
they are ideal for utilizing and beautifying 
places where space is limited. These trees 
are now available in America and have 
become one of the greatest assets to 
modern gardening. 
The Espalier type of fruit tree is field 
grown in the vicinity of Portland, Oregon, 
by the United States Espalier Nursery, Inc. 
They are hardy and adaptable to a wide 
variety of soils. Espalier trees will do well 
in all localities where other fruit trees are 
grown. 
Correctly trained Espalier trees make a 
beautiful decoration for the side of vour 
j 
home or garage, and are particularly 
adapted to planting along a fence or trellis. 
Many homes are creating arbors and out¬ 
door living rooms; for which the true 
Espalier is used in the formation of beau¬ 
tiful green walls of foliage. When in bloom 
they present an array of lovely blossoms. 
Fruit from Espalier trees is actually 
richer in flavor and juicier than the same 
varieties grown on ordinary trees; and, in 
most cases, is much larger in size. 
To every home, whether it be large or 
small, the Espalier fruit tree offers the 
opportunity to add that distinctive touch 
of grace and beauty that has found such a 
welcome in Europe, and, at the same time, 
provide delicious fruit for the table that 
could not be obtained from any other 
type of tree.
